Is it already time to start the Christmas shopping? Isn’t there still some Halloween candy in the kitchen? (It’s not the worst dessert for the Thanksgiving leftovers… even though somebody ate all the stuffing – how rude.)  But seriously, how did this happen so quickly? And how are we supposed to get the shopping done?

Don’t worry. We have you covered. Working harder than Santa’s Elf of the Month, we have spent 2016 coming up with new ideas, designing, creating, and getting them ready to go for you to simply sign on to the website and order your favorite items (most of which can be personalized for the most special gifts this holiday season for anyone who plays, coaches, or just loves sports.

Sherpa Fleece Blankets
We love our sherpa fleece blankets, and almost everyone who works here has one on their chair because they’re so warm and cozy. They’re 40” X 60” and have exclusive designs, and like most of our products, many can be personalized with names, numbers, monograms, and even team logos for great gifts that players will love to either curl up with when watching TV or relaxing at home, or adding to their beds for some extra warmth.  Each blanket ships with a convenient carry bag for the perfect way to take the blanket on trips or to outdoor events – and we have them for every sport.

LED Lamps
Light up any room of the house – or even the coach’s office – with these custom engraved LED lights for athletes who play just about any sport – as well as their coaches.  The lamps have seven color settings, so it’s easy to show team pride and display the team color, or change the look, feel, and mood of any room.  Add everything from player, coach, and/or team names, numbers, stats, the year – and even lines of your own personalized text. This unique lamp is sure to be a favorite gift that really stands out and is a centerpiece of any room.

Sports Christmas Ornaments
Ornaments and decorations are a holiday essential – without them, it would be like every other day of the year, except with less food and no presents.  We have a huge collection of both 3” round and sports jersey shaped ornaments for every sport – most of which have room for personalized text, names, and numbers. You can even add team logos and photos, as well as preserve a piece of artwork on the ornament for a great keepsake that the whole family will love.

Nutcracker Figure Ornaments
Our detailed resin nutcracker figurine ornaments are an adorable decorations for the tree, and they also have a flat base so they can stand on any flat surface as part of the holiday decorations on a mantle, bookcase, or even under the tree. While they are not functional nutcrackers, they are fun holiday ornaments that make great gifts for anyone who plays hockey or lacrosse, is part of a crew team, or runs.

Slide Sandals
The perfect lightweight slide sandal for athletes, many designs can be personalized with numbers, names, and team names and are available in your choice of navy blue or white with a variety of colors for the exclusive, custom printed designs (Yes, you can even add a team logo!). The footbeds are specially cushioned  to provide a light massage-like sensation when walking, but they are great sandals for warm weather activities. Players will proudly wear these sandals every chance they get and are an excellent multi-purpose gift.

Santa T-Shirts
Whether the athlete(s) on your shopping list will prefer the subtle style of our Santa “run” T-Shirt, our classic T-Shirts with Santa engaged in various sporting events, or even our super-soft and fitted vintage style T-Shirts and tank tops with varied Santa designs, we have something for everyone – and every sport – in these festive T-Shirts and tank tops that are sure to be a favorite.

Santa Shorts
The perfect gift for lacrosse or hockey player, these double-layered shorts are made from moisture-wicking polyester shorts with a fun designs that are great for working out or wearing as everyday shorts that show pride in the sport(s). This is one gift that they will definitely will not want to return… and don’t be surprised to see them already wearing them later on Christmas Day!

Slipper Socks
Keep feet warm in the most comfortable slipper socks around. Better than hand-knit, they have a sherpa fleece lining and are thick, cushioned, and cozy – and even have silicone “dots” on the bottom to avoid slips and falls. With a variety of colors and your choice of sport, you’ll find yourself having a hard time giving them to the person you bought them for. (And that’s okay. After all, you deserve a treat, too, after all this shopping.) Or – better yet, buy two pairs – one for you and one for a gift. You’ll thank yourself (and so will the recipient!)

Of course, we have tons more styles of the products in this gift guide – and even more gifts that will put a smile on the face of the Grinchiest, most difficult to shop for athlete on your list.
